To check ffmpeg that you have configured from windows explorer go to C:\pyTivo\bin folder and check if you have ffmpeg.exe there. If you don't see it then that's a problem. If you do see it then check if you can run it as follows:
From Start menu type:
cmd
Then in the cmd window type:
C:\pyTivo\bin\ffmpeg.exe

Left click on the upper left corner of the command window. Select "Edit" "Mark". Click and drag to highlight the text. Then select "Edit" "Copy" to copy to the clipboard.

i do have the ffmpeg.exe along with 2 other ffplay.exe and ffprobe.exe
i still have the same error message as my first screen shot on last page, i honestly dont think that its the problem. my tivo sees the movie folder once i click on it it says please wait and then says now playing list couldnt not be displayed because it is unabailable, press left to return to the my shows list

isn't generally where you'd put ffmpeg or pytivo. But if that's where you want things, then the ffmpeg setting of pytivo.conf should match.
If you're editing pytivo.conf by hand:

Code:

ffmpeg=C:\Users\pytivo-master\bin\ffmpeg.exe

It does seem to be the problem, since the error message says it can't find ffmpeg.exe in the path you have configured for it:
C:\pyTivo\bin\ffmpeg.exe
So as posted above you need to correct the path to ffmpeg since it's looking in above location. Easiest fix instead of editing pyTivo configuration if you don't know how to do that, is copy ffmpeg.exe to the above location.

Where do have pyTivo installed BTW? It would seem like it's under C:\pyTivo, so not sure where C:\Users\pytivo-master is coming from...

i moved the whole python27 folder just simply on my C drive and the pytivo folder inside the python27 folder like so. C:\Python27\pytivo-master ... once i run the pytivo it loads to what i pasted above gonzotek post

So, is it working now? I don't see the error message. If not, post your pytivo.conf file, after "x"ing out any sensitive data like user id and password. BTW, it's generally a good idea to post things like this between "CODE" tags so that the forum s/w doesn't reformat it and you don't get "Smilies". Note that I added them to what I quoted.

Also, there is no real reason to have the pyTivo folder inside the python27 folder. When you installed python, it should have associated .py files with python so that the default action when you open(double click) a .py file is to run python.

Since I updated ffmpeg.exe to a newer version, 08/08/2013, I get the following message from pyTivo. Pushed and pulled files still work fine, I am just wondering what configuration I need to change, if any, to avoid the message.

What exactly does this message mean?

Please use -b:a or -b:v, -b is ambiguous[mp4 @ 04576140]track 1: codec frame size is not set

For the ambiguous message newer versions of ffmpeg changed command line parameters, and technically the older syntax should not be used. However, the older syntax still works and pyTivo is setup to still be backwards compatible with older versions of ffmpeg. Fixing pyTivo to avoid the warning message would mean anyone with older versions of ffmpeg would be screwed.

sorry didnt know and i got it about the code now and no it does not work, the last lines i posted w.o the info message in beginning is the problem i think.. is it possible my cable provider (RCN) blocked this feature?

this is my pytivo.conf file, like i mentioned yesterday it was working on saturday and i did not change any files or setting within pytivo, i also tried reinstalling and setting everything up from scratch but to no avail, thanks

Try moving the Moviez folder to the root of your C drive so that the path is C:\Moviez. Windows may be preventing pyTivo from accessing it in its current location. Of course, you'll also need to update the pyTivo.conf file so the share has the new path and stop and restart pyTivo.

no it was spelled right i wrote it purposely with a Z, guys iidk what it was exactly but things worked today w/out changing anything, THE ONE THING THAT IS DIFFERENT is the last movie i placed in that folder didnt finish downloading but i thought it had or forgot it hadn't, i deleted that file/movie yesterday and when i tried today everything worked fine, so is it possible the unfinished movie caused the dilemma? and thank you very much guys who responded and offered help appreciate your time efforts

Just upgraded the drive in a Roamio Plus from the factory 1TB to a 3TB drive. The upgrade went pretty smoothly but now I can't see any of my pyTivo video shares. I've restarted the TiVo, restarted pyTivo and still no shares. Music and photo share are still working. The log shows that pyTivo sees the Roamio's beacon just like it always has. Nothing changed except I swapped the disk out, had to re-pair the cable card with CableOne and go through guided setup again.

I checked on tivo.com and transfer's are still enabled. Is there a setting somewhere on the Roamio that would prevent pyTivo shares from showing in NPL? The Roamio does see the other TiVo's on the network. I can push from the pyTivo web interface to the Roamio. Just can't see the shares and pull from pyTivo.

i am able to download any recording from my tivo using metadata and decrypt options only in kmttg. once the files are on my computer i use pyTivo to publish and start the transfer from my NPL. the transfer completes normally and i can watch the show but the video quality seems to be much lower. i get black bars top and bottom as well as it appears fuzzy and non-hd for lack of a better term.

is there a setting i am missing? i thought that the decrypt option would not change video quality?

i posted this in the kmttg thread but was told that it may be a pytivo issue?

also a side note, i have not been able to transfer a .tivo file back to my tivo, it recognizes the file but never actually initiates the transfer.

sorry i forgot to mention, i only recently installed the software, maybe 2 weeks ago? i was pretty sure it was the most current version but i'll check when i get home. also i'm using OSX so i'd assume i should be getting the current release from here? http://pytivo.sourceforge.net/wiki/i...p/OS_X_Install
